Aditi Katbamnapodcasters.spotify.com
When my mom asked me in Gujarati, what do you want to eat, I told her anything(kai pan). Recorded on phone from the comfort of my bed, I talk at length about whatever is on my mind. I do talk about kai pan(anything) through out the episodes as we progress. Sometimes it's arrange marriage, sometimes dating in and relationship in Mumbai, sometimes a random story from 5 years ago, sometimes I share my favorite products and experiences, and sometimes nothing at all. You never know what you might get into, but that’s what keeps it interesting. New episodes every Sunday, 11:11am Love, Aditi Katbamna
